COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONStella Artois is one of the world’s best-selling beers and is enjoyed in more than 80 countries. Its full, characteristic flavour and high quality is assured through a superior brewing process and by using the finest ingredients available.
The UK version is brewed, filtered and kegged at Samlesbury. Batches are sent to Magor for pasteurising before being canned or bottled.

Tap: Extremely pale, straw body, fizzling white head is gone within seconds. Aroma of metallic grains, stale hopes, skunk, very faint DMS. Taste is similar; very sharp carbonation, too sharp. Musty hoppage, light bitterness with an apparent skunky note lasting throughout & lingering into the finish with a mild metallic twinge. A small step above some of the typical American macro lagers... But a very small step.

HAY EVERY BODY TOO DAY IM TALKING ABOUT STELLA A BELGIUM THAT IS ALOT OFF PLACES BUT YOU NEVER DRUNK IT BEFORE.LET ME TWLL YOU ITS NOT TOO BAD. HAS CLASSICE BELGIUM LIKE FRUITS AND SPICES AND ONCE MADE BY MONKS’. NOW THEY’RE BECAME VERY SUCKESSFULL AND ARE EVERY WHERE IN AMERICA? SO ITS COOL TO HAVE CRAFT BELGIUM BEERS IN SOME PLACE YOU DONT.

On tap at Riley’s, Nottingham.
Pours golden, with a single finger white head, highly carbonated. Aroma of lemon, light malts. Taste of initial light malts, then lemon, some grassiness too. Not bad, one of the more flavoursome macro lagers. Ok.

Bottle 0,5l. Clear, pale gold colored beer. Aroma of malt and instant lemon tea, the same in flavor. Semi-dry, touch of metallic taste, light body. Not so bad as I expected, just as bad as average Czech lager.
